I support this proposal and agree that services rendered will be of value to CowDAO.

:pray: For the consideration of the Grants Committee, now moved to a snapshot vote (link here).

I support this proposal, even more given the impressive work realized on past CoW grants.

I endorse this wholeheartedly. Given @mfw78’s remarkable past contributions and impact to CoW, I’m keen to see more of his expertise in the next period.
